One of the best surf suits on the market, the Body Glove Matrix men's wetsuit is ideal for cold water locales. The suit is made of Body Glove's Future Flex material, an extra-soft, extra-flexible material that's both comfortable and easy to remove. The 4/3 mm construction (4 mm in the torso and 3 mm in the arms and shoulders) is supplemented by a water-repellent shoulder panel, a fairskin chest panel, and thermofiber panels on the chest and lower back for added warmth in the core. What really makes the suit cozy in colder water, however, are the Fluid Seal seams, which are initially blindstitched (glued and then stitched) so that the thread and needle holes penetrate only the top area of the surface. The inner seams are then reinforced with tape to keep almost every drop of water out. The result is a great suit for water as cold as 52 degrees F (users should consider 6/5/4 mm or 5/4/3 mm suits for colder water). The Matrix is anatomically cut for both comfort and style, culminating in a glove-like fit (the sizes range from XX small and short to XX large and tall). Add such handy extras as superflex stretch kneepads (a must for surfers), an interior floodgate, a key pocket, and a short zip that also lets in a minimum of water and you have a great suit for a host of chilly surf spots. Wetsuit Sizing:
About Body Glove Bob and Bill borrowed $1,800 and became partners with Bev Morgan in 1953 to develop Dive N' Surf into southern California's premiere retail store dedicated to surfing and diving, while continuing to surf every day, lifeguard, and operate a commercial diving business. Bob and Bill went on to expand the business to offer full lines of surfing and diving equipment, classes and apparel at multiple locations and thereby create a southern California retail institution introducing untold numbers of people young and old to the ocean. Bob and Bill found a new insulating material called Neoprene and invented the first practical wetsuit, opening the cold California waters to year-round enjoyment for surfers and divers. The suit "fit like a glove" and Body Glove was born. During the 1980's, Body Glove was involved with professional surfing, including their sponsorship of the Body Glove Grand Prix, a mini-tour based in Southern California. The Meistrells had a futuristic vision of pro surfing in America and formed an important alliance with Anheuser Busch and Don Corsini. Together, they built the Budweiser Surf Tour which hosted pro surfing events all across the mainland U.S., Hawaii, and Puerto Rico.
